Ralph Bakshi, legendary, renowned animation & movie director, of Cool World, Fire and Ice, Wizards, & Lord of the Rings 1978, has seen World Gone Mad
Here is his review:
Ron first let me tell you how much I loved the film, the staging great, the not taking it self seriously but not trying to be cool by letting me know you know is perfect filmmaking. You avoided all the clichés and put together a fun film. The hero was ugly and strange, that made it great, same with the girl. The setting was also perfect, the pacing, cutting great. —— Hollywood has trouble with this kind of movie. They think Pixar only. ——If it would be helpful I will write a quote to be used by your distributor anywhere. ...I want to show it around. ...Congrats, Heavy Traffic was also honest. You have just joined the club. — What would it take to do another one? Ralph.

Ralph Bakshi, my experience
His films, “Lord of the Rings” 1978 & “Wizards” 1977 & “Fire & Ice” 1983 and his notorious attitude were some of my biggest influence. As I kid, I had “Lord of the Rings” on VHS, on playback every morning as I ate Lucky Charms & Captain Crunch, getting ready for school far far away from Hollywood. I couldn’t stand the kid morning shows, but loved the ‘film making’ of Bakshi before I even knew what ‘film making’ was. So for him to give me a nod is pretty DEEP. But let’s not get all teary.
My film is a niche of a niche, but its also fun and entertaining. Its stop motion like style, simplistic CG characters, still hits hard. I did away with complicated storylines or character arcs to get into a journey driven world, a… where is this movie going… oh no he didn’t!.. kind of experience.

Duncan Macfarlane, incredible Renaissance Man.. Building his own pro sound studio, real estate, producer, composer, & LAWYER, said, “..better than Lord of the Rings..” (the new one) well he referred to World Gone Mad as, not knowing what to expect, from scene to scene. *
Race Horse Studios (check out his custom built studio) Macfarlane-Law (this guy is crazy)
*We still think Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings Trilogy is slightly better than World Gone Mad, in story & production… :) |
